Star-Lord (Stellar-Forged) is a Skill Champion. Being a Skill Champion, he has a Class Bonus against Science Champions, but is weak to Mutant Champions.

Bio[]

When Peter Quill made the decision to take on the power offered to him by the ancient Founders of The Contest, he expected his Spartax heritage to grow in strength. Instead, his human half was enhanced, granting Star-Lord lightning reflexes and extremely minute control over his Element Gun’s functionality. But the question remains: will that be enough to survive the battle on the horizon?

Mechanics[]

Star-Lord has been enhanced by the ancient power of the Founders, unlocking his hidden potential as a Skill Champion. Just like the classic Star-Lord, his Stellar-Forged cousin is powered up by his Combo Meter, this time increasing his Critical Damage Rating.

Over the course of the fight, Star-Lord will fire his trusty Element Gun in each of the four elements: Earth, Fire, Water and Air, conjuring up a lethal combination of effects.

Dev Notes: Thanks to Star-Lord’s ability to increase his Combo extra fast with his Light and Heavy Attacks, Star-Lord can finish his combos with a Light Combo Ender to optimize combo count while still boosting his Power Meter thanks to his increased Combat Power Rate after Critical Hits.

Heavy Attack

  • Each hit grants a Precision Buff, granting +X Critical Rating for 15 (21) seconds. Max stacks: 2.

  • Water: Gain a Combo Wave Passive for 10 (14) seconds.
  • Air: Pause all other Element Gun effects for 10 (14) seconds.

Dev Notes: Vulnerability is a powerful effect that lowers both Physical and Energy Resistance. Because it lowers these stats, energy-based damage sources like Star-Lord’s Incinerate Debuffs will deal even more damage. Notably, this applies to both existing and new damage sources, meaning you can inflict either the Vulnerability or the Incinerate first!

Dev Notes: Star-Lord’s Signature Ability bolsters his defenses thanks to his damage reduction during Special Attacks. Most notably, this effect can protect Star-Lord from Power Sting damage and the Recoil mastery.

Special Attacks[]

Special 1 - Element Gun
Star-Lord fires a shot from his Element Gun, but not before smacking his opponent in the face.

  • The last hit fires the Element Gun in its current elemental mode.
  • If this attack is a Well-Timed Special, the next Element in order is also activated.

Dev Notes: Performing Well-Timed Specials will greatly increase the damage output of our stellar hero. Intercepting the Opponent with a Special Attack is one of the most reliable methods to trigger a Well-Timed Special.

Special 2 - Rocket Kick
What makes a kick to the face better? Rockets, and a little pelvic sorcery.

Special 3 - Heroic Blast
With heroism like this, soon everyone in the galaxy will know the name Star-Lord.

  • Fire the Element Gun in its current elemental mode.
  • Each other Element can also activate with each chance matching Star-Lord’s current Critical Hit Chance.
  • Refresh all Element Gun effects.
